The National Hockey League will be recognizing some of its’ most valuable players on Thursday, June 12, 2008 at the Elgin Theatre in Toronto, Ontario Canada (win two tickets by clicking the image!).  I love the annual NHL Awards show because not only is it exciting to see who will win, but also, isn’t it […]

Dallas Stars Wake Up And Win Game 4 of 2008 Western Conference Finals

In the nick of time, the Dallas Stars woke up and decided to actually play hockey during last night’s game against the Detroit Red Wings.  I can’t blame the Wings for being stunned (or so it looked to me) to actually have to skate because I had all but prepared myself for a sweep.  […]

Penguins Punish Flyers in Game 3 of 2008 Eastern Conference Finals

Oh. My. Gawd.  This is absolutely insane.  The Dallas Stars and now the Philadelphia Flyers are each one game away from being swept in the 2008 Western and Eastern Conference Finals, respectively.  I cannot even believe this.
Last night, the Pittsburgh Penguins VISITED the Philadelphia Flyers and dominated the game.  I was hoping that home […]

Stanley Cup Playoffs on Versus - Schedule

Have you guys been enjoying Versus this season?  I think it’s great that they have been televising the games.  Being here in Canada, I’ve really taken for granted being able to watch hockey whenever I want, basically, but on a recent trip to the States, Versus became my best friend, lol.  Here’s a great promo […]

Detroit Red Wings Are One Win Away From Clinching Western Conference Finals

What the hell???  I can’t even believe how bad this series has gone for the Dallas Stars.  That game was a complete and total waste of my time last night.  The Detroit Red Wings all but mopped the ice with the Stars and Marty Turco was a hot mess.  He didn’t even look like […]

Penguins Beat Flyers Again in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals

The Pittsburgh Penguins currently have the best record of any team in the playoffs since the postseason began.  With last night’s 4-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers, the Pens have improved 10-1.  Since this is their second game (and second victory), they are halfway to winning the 2008 Eastern Conference Finals.  If I were Philly, […]

Canada Destroys Germany 10-1 at IIHF Hockey World Championships

Wow.  I almost beat my son when he groaned over Germany scoring a single goal in Team Canada’s 10-1 victory during the IIHF championship game yesterday.  Can you believe that!?!?!   As the Canadians scored goal after goal, I felt worse and worse for Germany.  I like winning, don’t get me wrong, but a slaughter!?!?!  Ouch.  […]

Detroit Red Wings Take Lead in 2008 Western Conference Finals

Last night’s game felt like a tighter battled continuation of Game 1 between the Detroit Red Wings and Dallas Stars. 
Dallas fell to the Wings but they can’t look to goalie Marty Turco to blame - the netminder was excellent, despite the loss, stopping 32 of 34 shots on goal.  Stephane Robidas opened scoring […]

Penguins Beat Flyers in Game 1 of 2008 Conference Finals

The first game of the 2008 Eastern Conference Finals is over and the Pittsburgh Penguins easily beat the Philadelphia Flyers.  With five of the six goals scored in the first period and a final one netted early in the second, it was just a matter of maintaining the lead for the Pens.  Mike Richards was […]
